What do i expect of testing? It is a branch to test relativly bugless
(that mean running) programms and not for use in allday life... Is
there a special reason not use stable? New version of sylpheed should
be easy to backport or to compile with stow as any other desktop
enviroment. I find it a bit strange (not only of you, as i hear of
seomtehing like that every second or third day) to install testing or
even unstable to not experienced linux or debian users....
Every IMHO naturally... :)
